FIFA 12

Recommended Posts

I actually enjoy f*cking up tackles just to put the new physics engine into use, i gave away two crucial penalties before and not a f*ck was given due to the hilarity of the tackles.

 

The xbox i currently have is knackered so i've give me brother a few quid to buy me the new slimline one which he should bring home tonight, can't wait to sit on Fifa all day without the thing freezing every 2 games.

 

Also my brother's youth scout found a cracking brazilian lad for his youth team, he's an overall 68, he is age 16, plays in attacking mid and is expected to reach 90 overall, he's gone a league two side aswell so it's an ideal signing.

I have a very frustrating bug, sometimes when crossing my players just pass the ball to the enemy keeper. sad.gif

 

So far this game has been a blast though, even with my online functions not working because my ISP is a c*nt.

 

Cup games in FIFA 12 are annoying. I had to refrain myself from some oldfashioned controller throwage. It seems the opposite team is way more competitive than a normal game. f*ck that. At least Champions Cup is still somewhat fair as opposed to 'Hey, you're winning, let's f*ck you over with a few lucky goals'.

I'm having the same bug with crossing, all of a sudden my game has decided that crosses should be aimed behind the goal

try changing cross assistance to manual - that should help.

 

As for the above cup "competiveness", most teams ARE more competitive in cup games.

 

I'm finding it annoying how rare the CPU shoot when you're the keeper. Nice to see EA changed that from 11...

Yeah, but if he's not used to manual controls then he should expect to continue crossing behind the goal until he gets the hang of it. Manual is a big learning curve, at least for me, that's why I opt to play with assisted smile.gif Don't get me wrong, I have the utmost respect for manual players, but it was just too frustrating for me.

 

Still waiting till the holidays to get my hands on this game. Sounds like fun with all the good things being said about it in this thread.

 

Speaking of these Cup games, can we now play an tournament online (group + knockout)?

I play with Semi (for crossing) can't get used to manual confused.gif

I use manual for a couple of reasons - when u get it right you can score some crackers, I was scoring too many with semi/assisted, it just felt wrong. Now half my shots skim the outside of the post, sail over the bar, but when my positioning and timings right, I'm working the keeper

I only wish the CPU had the same - last game I played the CPU had 4/5 shots and only missed one. Before I changed CPU shot error slider, every shot was a goal.

 

Also switch on manual for through balls - 30 yard killer passes ftw!

 

 

On another note, anyone know what the recent patch was for?

No issues with the games been fixed. Yet again ea have taken the money and f*cked offf

 

Also can anyone help with a problem I'm having:

I am not hearing any custom chants for my chosen team in career. I beer them in clubs but not in career. I did hear them once but no more sad.gif

I hate how on this Fifa whenever i cross a ball in it's always the defenders who connect with my passes and whenever they cross a ball in my defenders forget they're allowed to use their heads and i always conceed.

Anyone else notice a huge difference in difficulty between Professional and World Class? I cannot for the life of me keep a clean sheet and get embarrassed by rival attackers. 3-2, 2-1, 1-0, losing pretty much everything or drawing. I've had many instances of wanting to throw my controller while playing on World Class. sad.gif

Hell, I can't even win (most of the time) in Professional. Even Semi-Pro beat me sometimes. I'm still not used to this Tactical Defending, one mistake will just let the opponent slip through the line.

 

Also is it me or everytime the ball is being crossed to my penalty box, I can't even change my player. It's like you're locked to this one player until the ball hits or touches the ground.

I believe it was to stop players selecting the GK in head to head and letting the AI defend for them smile.gif .... I may be wrong though

Love playing with Milan and have done for the past few years. Their stats are crazy high now smile.gif

I just played this game, and the gameplay is unbelievable, except for the tackles of course sneaky2.gif

 

Anyways Something I loved about this game, is that I was playing Man Utd vs Man City 2 days ago Oct 24, and the commentator talked about Rooney's birthday, I went and checked, and found out that it was Oct 24 1985!

I've just won promotion into League 1 with Oxford United, i also won the FA cup beating Liverpool 5-0, Man City 3-1 and then Man United 4-1 in the final, Champions league is one step closer.

 

If anybody is playing with a lower rated team on career mode (1-3 star) then i'd suggest putting a bid in for Christian Tello (Barcelona B team), he is an excellent striker. I played him first game against Chelsea in the community shield and he scored a hatrick and in the following game he scored a bicycle kick which i'll upload on the EA sports website.

 

I play on professional by the way.

 

@Dnero - look up a few posts lol.gif It's f*cking annoying man!

Started a new season on World Class with RKC Waalwijk and this time around I'm doing surprisingly well. My objective is to stay away from the relegation zone, but I'm top of the tables. Two of my players (VP and Castillion) are topscorers in the league. And I seem to be less pissed when I get scored against, the last few games involved me coming back from a 3-1 to a 3-4 or something so mentally my team is doing fine as well. biggrin.gif

 

George Castillion is a good striker, his strong point is Strength but he has some other advantages as his length which make him very good for dribbling around players (sheer force) and corners (headers).

 

Hopefully I can get my Youth Acadamy shaped up nicely. I've one left wing defender now who I wanna bring in slowly by letting him play in some easier games or cup games.

So yesterday I scored a goal and ran toward a team mate and they high fived!

Nice little touch there.

 

anyone else having problems with pricks quiting early from games? We had a game and we were winning in injury time so they quit. Fcking annoying.

 

Nittydon: that may be true because you could apparently do that, but it dont work. PISSED me off cos being able to control the keeper at times is helpful. love that feature.

Nope, haven't met any quitters... yet.

 

I just lost 6 times in a row, yes it's that gay. The gayest part is that all those 6 matches were lost because of my opponent scoring in the last minute, and ALL of them were like those lucky ass goals. bored.gif

Point blank squared lay-offs?

They're so gay, I play as the keeper in clubs and am always getting them. I have stopped loads - stopped one and they quit immediately.

Had a game a few days ago where they kept doing it but missing!

wat

 

What I mean by the 'lucky ass goal' was that when the opponent shoots the ball and the keeper blocks it the ball goes back to the opponent that is beside the opponent that shot the ball and he just gonna score without a keeper to the net.

 

So it looks like this:

Red: Opponent

Blue: Keeper

I've only had one person quit on me so far when I was 3-0 up at half time while playing as Excelsior SBV. At least in this season's edition of the game the score gets reviewed, so that if you were winning, it still gets counted as a victory rather than a defeat in previous iterations.

ah.

 

I was thinking this:

 

 

 

?Next to no chance for the keeper to stop it. It's the football equivelant of a mugging, an ugly evil but effective tactic. 90% of my conceeded goals are due to this.

Ah yes. They do that too...

 

I hate them when they do that. I always try to avoid scoring like that since it's so damn easy. I mostly score with a finesse shot as it always look cool.

I find free kicks to be impossible, I mostly score inside the penalty box or sometimes from a cross. Crossing, free kicks, finesse shots. Not my thing, I suck at them this time around.

Respect for you then.

I hate seeing it - even strikers 6 yards from goal, who would pass, really? tounge.gif

Can anyone answer me this:

 

I've seen the ability to "praise" or "motivate" a player. But in my manager mode i do not have that option. Why is this anyone?

It must be a glitch for example, I am unable to use the "send defender up for attack" command.

My second season with Oxford is so f*cking hard, i'm in the first division, the FA cup, the League cup, The J paint trophy and the Europa league and i only have 24 squad members so it's rare to see my players with full energy, i've only lost one game out of 20 so far against Roma (profesional dificulty) and pretty soon i have Man City in the league cup who i should beat if i play like i did last season. I'd recomend anybody to take on the challenge getting a league two side to the prem, it's so addictive and alot of fun when your two star team are beating the likes of Liverpool 5-0 and such, give it another few game years and i'll be locking tusks with the likes of Barcelona i hope!

If anyone of you guys are playing FIFA today, the commentator said something about Halloween and stuff.

 

Nice details by EA, just like Rooney's birthday somewhere in the previous page.
